Faith formation is a lifelong process and through Faith Formation classes we provide formal catechesis for children 3 years old through 8th grade. Guidelines for this formation are developed under the guidance of the Archdiocese of Indianapolis. Through this formation, the parish can work in partnership with parents to assist with the development of your children's Catholic faith, prayer life, sacraments, and tradition.
First Reconciliation and First Eucharist are part of the 2nd-grade faith formation program. Confirmation is a part of the eighth-grade faith formation program.
Registration is ongoing, however, it is helpful for planning purposes to register for the upcoming school year as soon as possible. Classes are held on Sunday mornings for children ages 3 - 8th grade beginning September 13th and ending May 16th. Registration for your child is required.
Many volunteers are needed for this ministry. If you are interested in being a part of this wonderful ministry, please complete the Volunteer form or contact Kerry Schlimgen, Administrator of Religious Education at kschlimgen@saintsimon.org.
To volunteer, you are required to go online and review the Safe and Sacred program which includes a background check.
